Hi,
when using zipinfo on omni.jar for latest nightly, I get following warnings:

$ zipinfo firefox/omni.jar > /dev/null

warning [firefox/omni.jar]:  4757862 extra bytes at beginning or within zipfile
  (attempting to process anyway)
error [firefox/omni.jar]:  reported length of central directory is
  -4757862 bytes too long (Atari STZip zipfile?  J.H.Holm ZIPSPLIT 1.1
  zipfile?).  Compensating...

I can see them 8.0 and 9.0 and on i686 and x86_64 builds
I think this is from the way we optimize omni.jar (within the zip spec IIRC) but causes many zip programs to have issues.
